（古詩英譯）瀑布 – 黃檗 / 李忱

瀑布 – 黃檗 / 李忱

 

千岩万壑不辞劳，远看方知出处高。
溪涧岂能留得住，终归大海作波涛。

 

Waterfalls by Huang Bo & Li Chen (Tang Dynasty)

 

I conquer myriad rocks and ravines sans rest,

None but distance can tell ye my loftiest crest.

Lo and behold, no rivulets dare hinder me  —

Making billows in oceans with unfettered zest.

 

Tr. Ziyuzile
